Forever Bicycles alludes to the Forever brand of bicycles that flooded China streets during the artist’s childhood yet remained financially out of reach, for many. With the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and The Forks as the backdrops, the dizzying structure of steel and light and shadow becomes an infinite puzzle

 

There are 1254 bicycles in the structure

Surveillance. Ai Weiwei's incarceration by the Chinese establishment is the subject of the art in this room at the RA. The half size photo realist sculptures demand that we Monks were required to work out how to view these scenes through tiny awkward viewing apertures reducing us to voyeur status.

Ai Weiwei, Berlin

This wallpaper is composed of a clever combination of images merging the Twitter logo, surveillance cameras, shackles, and handcuffs, as though seen through a kaleidoscope. Here the artist is referring to his freedom of speech on social networks, but above all to his detention by the Chinese authorities.

 

*I really like this wallpaper*

Ai Weiwei’s installation “Safe Passage,” at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. The installation covers the 4 columns at the front of the building with life vests worn by Syrian refugees who journeyed from Turkey to the Aegean islands.

Royal Academy, London 2015

One of the main sections of the exhibition are numerous portraits of past and current political prisoners, done in LEGOs. Snowden and Manning are here, as well as many people held at Guantanamo and by many other countries around the world. Weiwei, showing some humility, did not include an image of himself, even though his passport was seized by the Chinese a few years ago, so he is not allowed to travel outside of his country.

Ai Weiwei work "The Signs Of The Chinese Zodiac was unveiled on Tuesday by Mayor Ford. The Chinese government had confiscated Weiwei's passport preventing him from attending.

Stools (2013), comprising 5,929 wooden stools from the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties and the Republican period, gathered from villages across northern China. The accumulation of individual stools forms a 72-foot square, creating an enormous variegated surface. Very few of these stools remain in Chinese households today, but they were once a ubiquitous staple of domestic life. Each stool reveals traces of use and evokes the experience of generations of lives. Ai Weiwei admires the stools for their simple design and solid structure, a design language that remained unchanged for thousands of years.
